Endless possibilities

Jack Reacher

I was watching the movie Jack Reacher and quite from the start I was amazed that it is still possible to write new plots, new scripts for movies. As the story started like no other movie I ever saw before. And when adding the Wikipidia link I saw that the story was based on a book, so it was probably not the idea of a script writer or of someone wanting to create a new kind of movie. But still. And yes, it seems there are endless possibilities to write stories, to create lives, to create anything you want. And the story was interesting all the movie long and again, I was impressed, as also this movie had a message, a message to get to the truth, no matter what, similar to the movie Law Abiding Citizen, one of the best movies, best stories, best messages I ever saw on the law, on lawyers, on our justice system.

Intermezzo: persistence

And I guess I should have called this post something like persistence as I kind of wanted to write this post from the terrace near our bedroom on the laptop. However, that laptop is broken and one of the issues is that somehow the internal keyboard or the touch pad is interfering with the things I was typing making typing virtually impossible. And my own computer also has a problem which I don’t want to check right now as that computer is more related to work. So finally I decided to bring up another computer, but only after doing that I realized that that computer has no wireless internet and there is no network connection nearby. So then I needed to find a way to get a wire up here, which meant I got a long wire and moved one of my switches a bit so I could connect that computer to the network. And then I found out it was not running at all, meaning I either had to fix it, like take the additional video card out or get another computer, which is what I finally did, get another computer. And then I found out it wasn’t connected to the internet due to my/our problems with our Internet Service Providers. So then I decided to use that computer as a remote desktop for the laptop, which probably would work when using remote desktop, which it did and does, although the music I was playing from the laptop stopped.

More on persistence

So I’m not sure how to continue this post, writing about the movie and what I admired or on me getting this post written today, right now. And I think with the last, as when thinking about the whole thing what I did to be able to writes this here right now I did a lot of things to make it work. But when reading the above you may also note, or at least I noted, that I was putting quite some restrictions on what I wanted and not wanted. E.g. I could have just gone down to the office and use one of the computers there as there are three there and as far as I know they are all working. So I wouldn’t have needed to put this wire and use remote desktop as they are all connected to the internet or at least can be connected to the internet much easier. And I could have checked my own computer and probably make it work as I need that computer anyhow tomorrow for work. But somehow I didn’t.

So looking back my desire was to sit here and write my post or posts or whatever I want to do further today with a computer. So yes, desire seems to be the most important thing still, the most important driver of everything, the most important thing to make things happen and to continue until you got what you want.

But I’m still a bit amazed with myself as I didn’t consider the whole thing important. And logically the whole thing doesn’t make sense, although while writing maybe it does, as the last few days I was not really able to or at least didn’t manage to write my daily posts, here as well as in my personal site, my personal blog. And yes, somehow not mixing private, this site, and work seems to be very important to me as I went quite far to be able to sit here and not in the office.

Abundance

One more thing I forgot and that is abundance. As I still feel quite poor at the moment with my office in ruins and old equipment and stuff that is breaking down. But looking at today and some other days, events, I still have an awful lot of ‘stuff’ that when something doesn’t work I can still put to use to make things work and e.g. write this post.

Going back to normal

And while writing now, while wanting to finish this post I don’t even remember why I started this post about the movie. But maybe this post is indeed to talk a bit more about desire and persistence. And that if you just push through there is always a way to get there, as there were many ways to write this post and also many ways to get a working computer in this location, at the location I’m working, writing right now.

And the amazing thing still about all this that there is indeed something like Infinite Intelligence. And that to my amazement somehow part of my desire document, about the intentions and plans I made around one and a half year ago are coming true. And that indeed, somehow life is getting back to normal, something I really have been longing for for a long time now.

And no, not the normal from before, but an intentional normal, a normal by choice, not by accident.

Change in energy

Leave a reply

A few days ago I read about a (spiritual) change in energy someone felt. And I think I can also feel it, I also felt it the last few days, the last few weeks. Something seems to have changed for the good, in the world. And it doesn’t change in one setting, it doesn’t change from ‘bad’ to ‘good’ in one switch, in one instant. As the last week I felt kind of terrible and it just started to change back to ‘good’ yesterday or the day before. And yesterday and today I also still didn’t feel fully OK, especially after waking up.

Fish

But tonight, while doing my ‘IFS‘ things I slowly started to feel the peace, the sounds of nature, the insects within the quiet, the things here that are so beautiful, that make this place kind of into heaven. And I still miss to share that, share that again. But now from a positive perspective, from peace, from ‘positive being’ and not from fear and worry as I used to do before. And it’s weird as I have no clue how to get there. I know now more what I want, more than ever. But practically spoken it is further from me than ever at the same time. ‘Reality’ tells me, or better ‘people’ tell me that I need to be real, that I need to be practical. And maybe I should, maybe I’m just heading towards more trouble, more towards things I don’t want.

But somehow I think more and more that I should stick to what I want, to my dreams, not give up, but be persistent, be patient. As I see more and more who I am. And that maybe I’m just a dreamer, someone who doesn’t (want to) see ‘reality’. But where would we be without dreamers, without dreams. We would still walk in animal skins or maybe even be more like animals, like apes. We would not have our daily food and other needs being given to us, and that even applies to virtually all poor people as who in the world still caters for 100% for their own food and clothes and other basic needs? And we wouldn’t have gone to the moon and there wouldn’t be cars and planes, let alone medicines. So yes, the more I think about it, the more I read about it, everything, literally everything we see around us, literally everything we are started with a dream, a thought. So should I stop dreaming, should you stop dreaming, even if it’s about things that people tell us is not ‘reality’. But we create reality, reality consists just of beliefs that have been practiced (Abraham Hicks) or the choices humanity and Infinite Intelligence or God or the Universal Consciousness made, choices you and I make.

So let’s keep dreaming. And in my own experience the more I dream, the more I want(ed) things for myself, the more I also realized in the end I (also) want to give. Yes, I want to stay in this house and yes, I like the house also because I like to show off with a big house. But I also want to share the place, invite friends, family, maybe even strangers as the place is so beautiful and it’s typically a place, a house to share. And yes, I want a big car, a black Pajero, big and that type because it’s expensive and I want to show off. But the more I thought and think about it I mainly want a car so I can move around again and visit friends or go to the beach with the dogs and (sometimes) with friends, just to enjoy, enjoy life. And to just go to the city, to be able to roam around easier, for business and pleasure. And yes, some money, not money for the money, but just money to buy new shoes and new clothes and some new stuff for my partner. And to repair the house as it’s so sad to see such a beautiful house fall apart, a house where there have been so many parties and so many people enjoyed the view and each others company. And yes, some money to just buy the food and drinks to create those parties, as at the moment I’m too embarrassed to invite anybody, in the house as it is and without proper food and drinks worthy of the house, and of course of the people.

And some simple things like a camera. Just a simple one. Not for myself as I don’t like taking pictures. But just to be able to take some pictures to share on this site, like the water system pictures I need for the first real proper page I made and I can’t finish right now because I can’t make the pictures I want to put.

And I feel guilty now, as asking things like this is ‘not done’, especially not for yourself. What crazy world do we live in, that we limit each other for ‘having’ things. What’s wrong with wanting a Pajero, or even a Rolls-Royce, but the last I don’t even want. Or wanting a big house or, indeed a lot of money. Why do we deny these things to each other. These things we all want. Where did we ever create the idea that it’s ‘bad’ to want things, material things. And why would we need to ‘earn’ these things through ‘hard work’. Again, the more I think about it it’s just crazy. Neither of us is even able to create a simple breakfast on his or her own. That is why we organized the world into what it now is. And this is the first time in history I believe we, as humanity, have the (technical) knowledge and ability to produce virtually anything that anybody would want or need. And we stick with this outdated ‘earning’ and ‘work hard’ thing.

I am dying to give my services to people, to develop websites and web applications and do some internet marketing so things can be ‘found’ on the internet by people looking for stuff or information. And all around me I see companies, shops, dying to sell their stuff. Supermarkets are full of food and anything else what anybody could even imagine. And, I think I’m repeating myself, most of the things I see around me I don’t need and don’t even want. So the idea of scarcity, that there is not enough for everybody is just a thought, just a perception. And it may be true there is not enough, as I don’t know figures about needs and wants of people and production capacity available or needed to produce all of that.

But even if it is true I’m quite sure technically we could produce, create everything anybody would want or need. So yes, I’m really to believe in these ideas about abundance, that there is enough for everybody and that that all can be done without harming other people or the environment.

So let’s find a way out of this mess, this way of thinking of ‘scarcity’ and the idea that people are greedy and want ‘everything’. I’m quite sure most people are like me, and don’t want everything that’s availalbe in supermarket or anywhere else.
